WRITE A LETTER TO YOUR MOM ABOUT WHAT YOU GOT, HOW MUCH YOU SPENT AND WHAT THINGS DID YOU CHOOSE?
EXAMPLE TEXT: Dear Mom,
When we went to the store we had an amazing time. To get there we took the bus which is $23 per person so I did $23x6 people=$138 and we had to get a ride back too so then I did $138x2 rides=$276 I have to spend on transportation. For a treat we all decided to get ice cream for $5 each so I did $5x 6 people=$30 so we spent $30 on the treats. Also for the special things we got were the bracelets for $11 each so for that I did $11x6 people=$66. Then we had to get your stuff so we got the butter for $10 the bread for $5 and the kitchen knife set for $70 so for that i did $500-$70-$10-$5=$410 for us to spend. All together I did $410-$276-$30-$66=$43 left over. So now you know mom. Oh, and here are your $43 that we didn't spend.
